  Paris Is Burning 1990

  ★★★ Watched 09 Nov 2024

  I understand why people claim this as one of the best documentaries ever made, but for me it just wasn’t the most entertaining film to watch. The topic is important and it was very moving, hearing the story of these people. I felt they did a good job capturing the prejudice and oppression these people felt. This documentary definitely taught me a lot. It gave me a lot of information on a topic I previously knew nothing about which was…

  Tokyo Godfathers 2003

  ★★★★ Watched 04 Nov 2024

  Everything Everywhere All at Once 2022

  ★★★★ Watched 28 Oct 2024

  I actually really liked this movie’s meaning of just how important everyone is and just the film’s overall life perspective it brings. I found myself overstimulated at times, just so much going on at certain points. However, this movie was just a fun watch. It made me laugh and also hide under my shirt. Ke Huy Quan is just the best guy ever and having him there just makes the movie so enjoyable. His role was played so well, he was just so versatile in this film. But yeah just a funny/scary hectic movie with a really good theme. Overall I’d give it 4/5 stars.

  Do the Right Thing 1989

  ★★★★ Watched 21 Oct 2024

  This was a very interesting and impactful movie. It gave insight to the culture and way of life of African American in the 1980s Brooklyn. Besides the deeper meaning, I felt the acting felt very real and authentic. At times I forgot it was a movie. Personally, it felt slow or felt like it was dragging at times. It took them a while to get to the climax but I’m sure that was just to build up the tension. I…
